Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
Have you heard about the Overwhelming Event? 1 Many faces will be contrite on that day, 2 Labouring (hard), weary,- 3 They will [enter to] burn in an intensely hot Fire. 4 and will be made to drink from a fiercely boiling spring. 5 There is no food for them except thorns of fire. 6 Which will neither fatten nor avail against hunger. 7 Faces on that Day shall be delighted, 8 well-pleased with [the fruit of] their striving, 9 in a sublime garden, 10 They shall hear therein no vain discourse; 11 Therein will be a running spring, 12 Therein will be thrones raised high, 13 and prepared goblets, 14 And arranged carpets. 15 And rich carpets (all) spread out. 16 Do they not look at the camels, how they are created? 17 And at the sky - how it is raised? 18 And at the mountains, how they are rooted? 19 And the earth – how it has been spread out? 20 So remind them (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)), you are only a one who reminds. 21 You are not a watcher over them; 22 However, those who turn away and disbelieve, 23 God will punish them with the greatest torment. 24 Surely to Us is their return; 25 Ours is surely then to reckon with them. 26
